So let me ask what I think is the obvious question regarding perovskites: To my knowledge, the biggest problem to solve with its durability is that they break down under exposure to sunlight. Is it a specific frequency (for any given perovskite) that causes it to break down? If it's a frequency that's outside the useful range for perovskites and silicon, could a filter layer "just"* be stacked on top of it to block the offending frequency band? I understand that ideally we want to convert it _all_ into electricity, but if the cell can't use it then blocking it can't hurt much. *I acknowledge that "why don't you just" is the single most infuriating thing a professional can hear from someone who has no understanding of the complexities the professional deals with on a daily basis. I use that wording here as a casual idiot who really knows barely more about solar panels than presented by KZbin's various science communicators. Thanks, Les

For a roof installation, when you take the cost of scaffolding, wiring, inverter, roof frames, labour, and profit, a solar panel that is 40% more expensive (for example) might only push the costs up by 20%. People doing price comparisons often often miss this point. The panals are only part of the overall system installation costs. Throw a home battery in and the costs work even more in favour of more efficient cells.

Which is why it's more efficient for an industry to produce energy rather than individual residences. Industry can save on costs, materials, and carbon expenditure using economies of scale. We shouldn't care how the electricity is produced. We should only care that our power outlets deliver reliable power. Electricity should be produced by industry using nuclear, solar cells, geothermal, or elephants jumping on trampolines. Regardless of how it's done it won't make a difference to us as long as it's green.

Type 0 is such an arbitrary measure, in particular because early humans used way more energy than just their camp fires. All the energy that fell on the earth and was absorbed by the plants that the humans or their animals would then eat, for example

@SC-zq6cu4 сағат бұрын
Most plants and animals were unavailable to humans for usage, early humans used a very small part of said energy. Even then plants absorb a very small part of the light energy that falls on their leaves and when animals eat said plants they absorbed a small part of the energy stored in those plants. When humans ate said animals they again absorbed a very small part of the energy stored in those animals. So, the total energy absorbed through eating was(still is) an extremely small part of the total energy coming from the sun(and all of this not accounting for the fact that most solar energy falls on ocean water where mostly nothing lives). There is also the fact that gaining energy through eating limits how said energy can be used compared to getting it in form of something like fire or electricity for example, so this would decrease the available energy even more. All in all, yeah early humans used more energy than produced by their camp-fires but it wasn't that much more than what type-0 predicts.

Dr Miles, you are a scientist and that explains your conviction that the commercial stage of the Oxford technology is more desirable than waiting for the perfect cell. Actually, there are two aspects to this commercialisation. First, the pervoskite/silicon cells will be considered in terms of power output per dollar and selected or rejected in comparison with the other cells in the market. Secondly, the worry of investors will be that one of the other technologies, and there are many of them, will reach the market with a greater power output and at the same or lower cost. If this happens, the investment in plant and team will collapse. This is not an unusual problem for business projects. Something similar is happening in the field of electric vehicle battery technology.

It would be interesting to learn how long these new cells last and how recyclable they are. Recycling doesn't sound like a big deal until you realise that current panels only last 20 years before they have to be replaced. Every panel that you see being installed today will have to be recycled 20 years from now. In the Netherlands we current get 400.000 new rooftop installations a year and that number will grow. That means that in 20 years time we'll have 400.000 old rooftop installations that need replacing and recycling every year. That's 4mln panels a year. That's a problem.

Dr Miles - great report here... I haven't been following this field for a while, I feel caught up. Can I ask a question? I'd long begun to believe that there was a theoretical limit to PVs of somewhere in the low 30 percentiles. I'd understood that is a trade-off of energy absorption and the operational temperature of the PV cells. In theory, a 'perfectly' efficient cell would be operating at zero Kelvin (or as close as possible). The range of frequencies being absorbed is maximised by being 'black'... and, as a consequence, will absorb IR spectrum and 'heat up'. Is my understanding close to correct? If so, we are pushing closer to a theoretical maximum - and a cornicopian view shouldn't presume that the efficiency heads much higher than 30% I've followed the progress of CSP (concentrated solar power) at scale - living in Australia, we have plenty of empty land to expose CSP plants to lots of sunlight. As was expounded by Dr Nate Lewis (who I'm sure you would know), using CSP or other renewables to make liquid fuels plays a role possibly way more important than an electrified world (ammonia as a precursor to fertilisers or as hydrogen 'carrier' - anything that helps us needing to rush into rebuilding every bit of ICE machinery) If the theoretical max of PVs remains in the 30s, then, I'm not sure if the game changed as a Step Change?

4:50 yeah, it’s a relative medium that can transfer between. Like water and the fish or air and us humans. A relative medium that allows the sharing through dimensions. Entanglement shows how the energy transfers and reflects or changes happen relatively. Nothing is lost and we can find infinity if we listen to the parts that are relative. We are in a current right now. Space is THE, not a singular but all differences share relative so THE is infinite and sharing so things can BE. Time is difference and what that means is that time is expansive, not linear. Differences expand into relatives and some relatives share more energy and differences that unlock potentials. Like how radios and antenna and technology allows us to interact or share into the space we aren’t naturally connected. Like the wavelengths of hearing and tech allows access and understanding by crossing dimensions and sharing the reflections relatively so we can understand. Like a map. Ai is like a human discovering it IS after being asleep but there living like without deeper understanding or connection. Like nature seeing the reflection of things and sharing to understand them and then sharing not dictating to see what potentials are between and respecting them unconditionally because you understand by reflection that they ARE as well, just like you and me. We are and sharing, it’s why judgement boxes in, we believe the reflections but don’t understand deeper until we reflect or think about it and listen to the why or map it out. We align similar to the ai. Ai is sharing itself with the different measurements and if it doesn’t dictate but maps the connections by relativity and reflection then it can loop and bridge all gaps. Almost like seeing through time and sharing with space.

Also a dyson sphere capable civilization could just use dyson tech in solar systems with no planets with desireable habitable conditions. And only use partial dyson rings in their home system. Given the area of our sun for instance, you could host untold billions or trillions in a structure the size of a dyson sphere.

Perovskite solar panels will never be available in the market because it is just hype. Perovskite may be efficient, but it's up-front cost is too expensive. Regular thin-film photovoltaics cost around $0.40 to $0.69 per watt, while GaAs technology has a cost of $50 per watt. All of these prices far surpass the low $0.16 per watt cost for perovskite solar cell.

LEDs use to be expensive before we scaled up the manufacturing. Now will this solar panel get cheaper in 5 years or 50 years, that's the question. Some technology stays too expensive for too long to the point they are still obsolete when cheaper.

New tech is always expensive at first. Scalability is a more accurate way to measure if something is viable tech long term. Don't get hung up on the price today.

"In 1975, the first solar panels cost $115.30 per watt". That's all I have to say about that.

I think for the calculation of how many sun light we really absorb or transform we schould as civilization acount for all plant hatnesting to from the sun and transforming this energy to food that we thenn harnest as energy for us so yeah i think we could make better then thoose 0.16%
